HOWTO see kernel command-line options used when you booted
From LinuxReviews
Jump to navigationJump to searchWant to know exactly what command-line options were added to the kernel you have booted into? It's easy, the special file /proc/cmdline
has the information. It is also available in the first few lines of dmesg
. Thus; you can get the kernel options used to boot by either typing
Shell command(s): |
cat /proc/cmdline |
or
Shell command(s): |
dmesg | head -n 10 |
These options are typically configured in the file /etc/sysconfig/grub
as a GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=
variable.
